ENG:I woke up this morning beneath a grey sky and it was raining cats and dogs. Sigh... there are definitely better ways to start your holiday. Luckily the Côte D'Azur is filled with gorgeous towns, we opted for Nice today. To get into the summer mood in spite of the weather I wore my white pants and my new off-the-shoulder top from Zara. Do you like this outfit?

ENG:After quite some hours of driving, we arrived in our Bed & Breakfast at the Côte D'Azur. My parents and I freshened up a bit right away and went for a walk through the little village in which we are staying. Because it was very sunny outside, I opted for my new top and A-line skirt from H&M. The A-line skirt has been featured in basically every magazine lately and needs to be in each fashionista's wardrobe. Do you like this combo?

A visit to Nice and/or Cannes is on the agenda tomorrow. If you prefer real-time updates about my holiday, you can follow me on both Instagram and Snapchat (@ karenliesens).

The Belgian brand Komono will make sure that you'll steal the show this summer. Are you more an elegant and classic type? Opt for the Estelle, Moneypenny or Winston. These designs got a "Royal" make-over. You can choose between four timeless colours: black, gold, rosé and silver.

If you want something more daring, Komono has the right watch for you as well. Denim is hotter than ever and these new watches are decorated with gorgeous shades. The Winston Heritage Denim uses acid wash and leather details for a timeless radiance.

ENG:Those who know me, now I'm a true foodie. If it depended on me, we all would go out for dinner every single day. Life is too short to not enjoy lots of food. Last week the Trek Food Truck Festival took place in the gorgeous Stadspark of Maastricht. Four days long a lot of people gathered around the most delicious food and drink booths. There's something for everyone's liking at the Trek Food Truck Festival: from American hamburgers to Italian pasta's and from Vietnamese bites to Dutch pancakes. There was also plenty of choice for those who just wanted to enjoy some drinks with a beer car, a wine terrace and a gin bar. The organisation provided quite some entertainment as well. The Trek Food Truck Festival will be touring through The Netherlands all summer long. Click for more informationhere.

ENG:Tomorrow night I'm finally starting my holiday. Nine days long I will be enjoying gorgeous weather, great food and some relaxation at the French Riviera. We will be staying in two hotels, one in France and one in Italy, but I will tell you about both later. On my wishlist: visiting Nice, Cannes, Saint-Tropez and Monaco. Do you have any tips for me?In these fancy sea towns the rule "more is more" of course counts. My favourite Chanel bag, which you can spot in the pictures below, will also go with me to France of course. Do you like this outfit?

A salt water spray that adds body and texture for a natural, matte beach look. 150 ml. How to use: Spray onto dry or damp hair and blow dry or leave to air-dry. Twist with your fingers for a tousled effect.

The packaging of the beauty line of H&M is simple yet beautiful. This also applies to this spray. The fluid is inside a white bottle with a spray button. The label is sea blue, which is a pretty reference to what you can expect from this product. The product description is clearly mentioned on it as well.

If I let my hair dry, I have a natural curl in it. I wanted to enhance this effect because I love beach hair during the summer. I started by washing my hair and thereafter I sprayed some fluid on my wet hair. Afterwards I tied my hair in two knots during one hour et voila... my beach hair was ready.The H&M sea mist spray did what it promised to do and really has a sea smell. While using this product, I felt like being on a holiday, which is a big bonus point. The curls created by the spray, lasted a whole day. One of the best products I tried so far!The H&M Sea Mist Salt water spray comes at €7,99/bottle and is available in selected stores or online.

ENG:A while ago I was invited to the opening of the new H&M store on the Meir. During this event I scored this dress which was very cheap. Pretty things don't necessarily need to be expensive because I got already so many compliments on this outfit. Another thing which makes me very happy, are my laced-up heels. As you probably already know, I have quite some trouble finding shoes in my size. Luckily Zalando has plenty of choice in different sizes and colours. Do you like my outfit?
